    Question Help required in search command and or

    HI,

    I have open ended survey for a single question i.e. sentences for a single question by employees and I am trying to group certain kind of comments under some headers. For this I am trying to look for specific words so as to classify those comments under headers. I was trying to use SEARCH and combine the same with IF but that is happening for single word search. I am trying to combine SEARCH with OR in the IF command and that is not happening correctly. Can anyone help me here! Let me know if the doubt is not clear.

    Fast answers need clear examples. Post a small Excel sheet (not a picture) showing realistic & representative sample data WITHOUT confidential information (10-20 rows, not thousands...) and some manually calculated results. For a new thread (1st post), scroll to Manage Attachments, otherwise scroll down to GO ADVANCED, click, and then scroll down to MANAGE ATTACHMENTS and click again. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.

    Not clear - where have you mocked up your expected results? What are the terms you are searching for?

    You need to add some expected results manually to show us what you want.

    My goal is to divide the "What you like" column into further sub columns such as "Personal", "Health" basis the kind of words. used in those sentences. For example a cell contains sentence "My family is much better with working from home condition", so now I am trying to do a formula that extracts words from these sentences and group them under "Personal", "Health". Word in this cell would be family as my lookout!
